Golf VI R :: Convenience Settings Disabled While Using Spare Keys
Aug 16, 2013
I recently noticed that using my spare keys w/ my R disabled my vagcom tricks / convenience settings I had done. When going back to my original keys I use 99% of the time, these vagcom tricks become active again w/ no problem. I've gotten the following vagcom tweaks done to my '13 Golf R;
- convenience feature to open and close windows using key
- 4 convenience blinks (instead of 3) when switching lanes
- horn disabled when locking the car

I have a 2009 SEL (NA) that doesnt have the convenience settings on the MFD, I have read this can be enabled at the dealership or through VAG-Com. Although my user manual states I can access it (which i cant) should i take this up with the dealer to enable the feature?

here is my problem on a 02 passat. on the remote, the little siver hook that holds your spare keys broke off. i had a new spare remote that had never been programed. so what i did was to simply remove the blank key and replace it with the cut key. also i took out the computer chip (i guess that is what it is called) and put it in the new remote. so i have the same key with the same chip that has always worked only in a different fob. BUT when i start the car it will only run for a sec. or two then it will shut off and i will get 'imoblizer disabled' ???? everything else on the remote workes. this makes NO since to me at all and is driving me crazy.

Well heck, the PO of the truck I just bought has lost the spare key to the ignition, and the key that opens the tailgate and unlocks the spare tire. First question, is the key to the tailgate and spare tire the same key or are they different?
Second question, is there any simple way to have new keys cut for these things?

I know the different driver's keys that come with the Phaeton gang to a bunch of memory functions (seat position, radio stations, etc.) I thought that one of the functions the keys remembered, and would change depending on which key was use to start the car, was the driver and passenger side temperature settings, as left when the car was last turned off, for the key used to start the car that cycle. My car doesn't do this (it leaves the temps right where they were when turned off, regardless of key used.)

New GTI. I can manually put all 4 windows down and open the sunroof then get them all to CLOSE by holding the lock slot on the door but I simply cannot get them all to open at once holding down the driver window switch. I'm doing exactly what the manual states to do. With ignition off. But with power either on or off this doesn't work for me.

I was wondering if the spare tire could cause the TMPS to go off because i checked all four wheels and they are at 39 psi just to be safe and still its on.

I have a non resonated exhaust and when I get on the gas, the spindle that holds down the spare tire in the hatch rattles like crazy. It is so loud. I have tried removing the spare tire and also removing the cap that holds down the spare tire. Nothing works.

Taking out the metal part where the spare tire goes in the hatch? I was wondering if I could cut it out and not compromise the integrity of the car.

I have water in my Jetta's tail lights and its really annoying. I just had them both out on the weekend and checked out the foam gaskets and they were both fine but i replaced them with an older pair I had that looked in even better shape but basically the same condition...
Rained pretty hard last night and now there is like more water in them then before... I made sure I tightened them down good because they were not that tight when I originally took them off.
There is water condensation in my spare tire well and making my carpet wet and starting to fog up my rear windows..

Just picked up my 2013 GTI and was pleasantly surprised to find that it came with the Euro dash cubby already installed. Also discovered a Euro warning triangle in the spare tire compartment. Have these features been added as standard on the 2013's or did I just get lucky?
Now for the transmission question - do others find the 6 MT notchy, particularly between 1st and 2nd gear?

Basically one of my keys will only intermittently work on the doors (always works for ignition and the hatch). As soon as I use the remote, the KESSY re-syncs or something and then it works for a little and then after some period of time (say from when I leave my car in the morning until I go to leave work in the evening) it eventually won't work again. Its not the battery, the dealer already reprogrammed all the keys, and its just this particular key, the other seems to always work.

2000 VW Jetta
Yesterday everything was working great with my FOB key, I swapped plastic housing to one that is in better condition and then things went down hill. Both FOB's tested great for wireless transmitter. Old FOB no longer locks, unlocks or pops trunk. Car drives and turns over with master and valet keys properly (ruling out immobilizer I believe?)
I am trying to reset and program the FOB but my anti-theft system is not turning on with key- and that is critical to have on with what I have read here. Once I can get the red-light flashing and indicating anti-theft is on, I should be good to proceed.
Last night I turned key in car to on position and the alarm was going off, used the master key to pop the trunk open and that caused the alarm to cease.
Since then I can not get the anti-theft/alarm to activate at all. Currently if I have all my doors and windows closed along with the trunk, turning the key in door to the lock position it locks but does not activate the anti-theft -- no blinking red LED. Turning the key twice does not lock all doors either.

So my temp light comes on in my 2002 gti 1.8t. The light comes on with the engine cold and not running, just keys in. I replaced the temp sender and the fan switch. I already checked the fuses, still good. The only thing i can think of now is the relay. There is plenty of coolant in the system as well. And I am not getting any CEL.

My one original switchblade is long gone and the other no longer works. It starts the car of course but none of the functions work, battery change did nothing.
Question: Do any other model year keys work with the alarm and immobilizer?

Initially my compass and all convenience features disappeared a few weeks back. They dealer can't seem to figure out how to bring it back. The did get my compass back though. It may sound insignificant but three features are now gone that I like. I shut off the horn beep when locking the car, one push on the keyless entry unlocked all four doors and when I shut the car off all four doors unlocked. These are now gone.

So my Tiguan's at the dealership getting the leaking sunroof repaired. I told them to unlock the convenience menu for me because the manager told me they could next time I came in....

The 'convenience closing' feature on my Phaeton - as described in the two excerpts from the owner manual posted below - is not working. I can't close or open the windows using the key blade in the driver door lock, and I can't close or open them by pressing on the keyless access locking button on the driver door handle.
This has both myself and the Phaeton tech at my VW dealer perplexed. The Phaeton demonstrator at the dealership does not perform any of these functions either.
This feature works on your Phaeton? I am especially interested to hear from folks who have used a diagnostic scan tool (VAS 5052 or VAG-COM) to turn off unwanted chimes and buzzers. Right now I don't know if I have a problem with the car, a problem with the coding or adaptation of the car, or if the NAR Phaetons just don't perform as the owner manual describes them.

OK, so I started the T and got the low tire pressure warning. I began to cycle through the MFI to see which tire was low and poof! I was in the convenience setup sub-menu. Now that's all I get. No other menus. I've tried everything I can and it seems to stay that way. been about a week now.

I just picked up a 2013 Golf TDI 2 Door Tech Package 6-Speed Manual Transmission on Sunday and I wanted to know if there was a way to access all the MFD/MFI settings while driving? I have a Vag-Com and already set the navigation speed threshold but it does not have an effect on the MFD/MFI.
Also, there has been quite a bit of talk on the new Focus ST, I pre-ordered a loaded ST3 car back in May and upon seeing it and driving it when it arrived last week, I went to VW and picked up my TDI. More on that later.

Saw the 2013 Jetta commercial with the dog and in the last scene the owner closes all windows via the exterior driver door handle.
Is this a function available on the Passat? I tried it with no success.
